    Stopped in for dinner, it was very odd because they had Styrofoam plates instead of the regular heavy duty plates. The food was good, I had a lot of shrimp and the special beef. Tasted great. Service was great, our server kept coming by to ask if we needed more water. The only bad part, it is so loud because of children, screaming and yelling and crying everywhere. That's one of the only reasons I don't like going to buffets. Seems to always be screaming children. I wonder if it would work if they put all of the groups with children in one side of the building. Anyways, nice visit.

    Who doesn't like a great Chinese buffet? Asian king is one of them. The food is hot and fresh; there is something for everyone. If you can't find anything you like then you are not hungry . I like the hibachi, there's a variety of meat, vegetables, noodles and eggs to make your own creation. The servers are good at clearing the table and refilling your drinks. The restaurant is nice and clean, and I love the chandeliers murals and they play nice music. Look in your mail for Val-Pak coupons to save money.

    Well stocked buffet with all the Chinese favorites and staples plus many other items to satisfy any finicky children. Loved the dessert area. Asian King's soft serve was awesome, so creamy. All the entrees I sampled were OK, nothing spectacular, but OK. Our server was very attentive and ensured our drinks were refilled and used plates collected.

    Very good buffet at lunch time some of the food .

    Been going to Asian King Buffet for 10 years and they are still very good. We always go for lunch during the week. The food is hot and fresh. Make sure you go when they have a good crowd, which seems to be every time we go. Service is very good and friendly and clean. We get a senior discount to save some money. Inside is set up with all the usual buffet areas to pick from sushi, hibachi grill, salad, fruit and dessert. The main food buffet has everybody's favorite. Orange chicken, sesame chicken, beef and broccoli and so much more. They also have crawfish or crab legs most of the time. People love crawfish. I see piles of mudbugs on plates. I stick with the traditional Chinese food.

    Love this Chinese buffet. They have Mongolian grill, which is my favorite. They also have vermicelli noodles, lo mien noodles, fried rice and steamed rice...which a lot of buffets don't offer this much selection. The food tastes are consistent and you know what you are going to get each time you come.

    As someone from Lake Charles, Louisiana, I don't hype Cajun food unless it's legit and this place…read moreis the real deal! It's exactly all the things you love about Cajun culture and food. The crawfish had that perfect boil flavor with just the right amount of spice. Gumbo was rich, hearty, and full of flavor. Had to get me a link of smoked boudin and it stood out. It had a nice spicy kick and was packed with the best smokey flavor in every bite. Got me a meat pie and it was exactly what you hope for. Nice and crispy on the outside, savory and satisfying inside. It's a super casual spot with a great indoor area and a solid patio, perfect for just hanging out and enjoying good food. Honestly, it's hard to find Cajun food like this outside of Louisiana, but they did it right. Made me feel right at home!

Nice little bite. Didn't need to add any Tobasco sauce. They know what they are doing. Read a review complaining about the bread on the poboys, but they use Gambino's which is what I'm used to from growing up in Louisiana. Fried shrimp, on the poboy on the other hand were a tad blander than I would have expected. It needs cocktail sauce which I had to use from a table mate since mine didn't come with any or dialed to ask for it. The cocktail sauce added the missing taste. Hush puppies were yummy too. Big serving as a side. Enough to share for sure. The boiled shrimp looked and smelled amazing but I didn't get a chance to sample. Came with a boiled potato, corn on cob and sausage piece. Pretty good deal it seemed. Prices were quite reasonable. Service was spot on and helpful and they checked on us constantly. A great find in a hidden location. Finding authentic Cajun can be difficult in north Texas. But think I've found one finally.

    What at treat we found here, I don't even know how I've missed this place for so long…read more It's authentic Mexican food with a menu that covers a wide variety of traditional dishes especially seafood along with beef,soups etc. There is plenty room to park, we were greeted and seated immediately. Our server was quick to answer our questions and make suggestions. It's a lively festive atmosphere here with live entertainment. The food was amazing be careful with the queso sauce it bites back the Pico de gallo was mild. I had Salmon fillet with a red pepper creme sauce which I requested to on side. Absolutely delicious steamed Veggies and white rice all cooked perfectly the rice was amazing flavorful. The wife had Aguachiles Shrimp with malencon sauce their were 3 sauce options for this dish.We finished it off with Churros and Ice Creme which look fabulous but the ice creme was mostly melted when they put 6 hot churros in it. Just ok I prefer Ice Creme cold. I asked for an Old Fashion but apparently they don't served those, went with straight whiskey while wife had a Paloma. We enjoyed the music, the crowd and the night at Mariscos El Malecon and will definitely be returning.

I think it could be updated a little bit but I do love the stained glass windows and giant fish tank , beautiful touch. The service was outstanding. Our waitress was informative, attentive, and kind. She made sure we were well taken care of and answered my menu questions. We ordered fried mushrooms for an appetizer, baby boil with extra crab clusters and fried white fish with fries and green beans. All of the food was great! I noticed the hush puppies that are brought out complimentary are balls instead of the sticks, that's kind of a bummer! But they were still tasty. I didn't care for the shrimp on the boil but the crab and potatoes were great. Next time I will just get the crab.

    Review for Catfish & Company…read more On Friday, March 13, 2026 around 1:00 p.m., I experienced some of the most inattentive service I have ever encountered at this restaurant. I was seated in a section where a waitress appeared to be focused on a large group of "Red Hat" ladies. She brought me an Arnold Palmer and hush puppies, but never returned to take my order. When my friend arrived, I informed her. She acknowledged us and said she would be back in a few minutes. What happened next was astonishing: she proceeded to serve multiple tables around us while completely ignoring our booth. Not once did she stop by to take our order, apologize for the delay, or even acknowledge that we had been waiting. Watching every surrounding table receive service while we were treated as if we were invisible was beyond frustrating--it was simply unacceptable. What makes this even more disappointing is that my family has a long history with this restaurant. We have celebrated birthdays, anniversaries, and retirements here over the years, which is why this experience felt so out of character and frankly disrespectful. To their credit, the assistant manager stepped in and reassigned our table to a male server, who immediately provided excellent service and salvaged the situation. However, the fact that a paying customer had to be rescued from being ignored at their own table suggests something is broken in the service culture. A refresher in basic hospitality--acknowledging guests, managing sections, and communicating delays--might be overdue. If I return, I will absolutely refuse to be seated in this server's section again--even if it means waiting. Because good food should never come with the side dish of being ignored.
